Tennessee's Insurance Committee passed HB1215, a bill that would ban insurers from contracting as a TennCare MCO if they covered gender affirming care anywhere in the nation.
Wow, it’s just fascinating to see transgender healthcare being treated in such a similar way as abortion care was. I guess if the playbook worked then, why change it.
Right? We are such a small vulnerable community. The vast majority of us are friendly, compassionate, and just want to live our lives. I think it's because we are the near perfect target for bullying right now :(

It doesn't matter if something is outrageously unconstitutional; judges are who dictate what laws get to stay in place and Republican judges couldn't care less about their rulings making logical sense. After all, why should they? As long as you can get people to vote for you, you don't need to make any sense.
If anyone has more money than those funding hate groups for litigation it’s the private insurance industry
Insurance companies are quite risk adverse. They will drop us in a heartbeat if that's in their best $$ interest.
Tennesse is too small of a market and this legislation violates ACA

What are the chances of this working? I don’t understand why they hate us so much. I just want to be left alone.
